Of Malady and Mortality: Five Books to Read When Your Spouse Is Diagnosed with Cancer
When my wife was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer, I instinctively reached for books. Not medical tomes or statistical survival guides—though I eventually read those too—but books that could help me navigate the emotional wilderness of loving someone with a terminal diagnosis. These books became my companions during our four-year journey with cancer. They offered […]

Reading that treatment resistant depression might indicate personality disorders. Reading that bipolar depression isn’t real & it’s due to faulty thoughts & behaviours. Reading that we shouldn’t be on meds. Basically feeling like an absolute failure today.😢

New position statement on pain in the older person just dropped via ANZSGM. I particularly liked point 3.
"3. The gold standard for pain assessment is self-report. A person reporting pain should be believed, even in the absence of demonstrable pathology likely to explain the pain."

yearly scans & labs clear - no cancer 10 years! I quietly quit all treatment 2 yrs ago. Couldn’t tolerate side effects (effucks). So I took a break for 3 months & by the end of that I decided to take an extended break. Which turned into quitting all treatment. 1/4

Death,
It’s hard to talk about,
Even harder when its NOT a hypothetical scenario,
But it is so important to keep talking,
Because in talking ‘death’, we live a little better when we live with #MetastaticCancer

It might be EBM but until #qualitative research is done we don’t understand the how & why it’s so hard to implement. I hope the administrators & team leads listen!
Published! A #qualitative review of ERAS implementation (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery, not the Swiftie tour 🤣) with Georgia Tobiano, Wendy Chaboyer, Josie Lovegrove, Keith Addy and Brigid Gillespie. Spoiler alert- evidence and goodwill only goes so far without RESOURCING.
